HR Headline: Pay for Performance Remains Controversial
"Pay for Performance" has made inroads in business, but has
remained a hard sell in public school systems. There are some
successful examples where teacher pay has been linked to
student test scores. For example, in Minnesota, some districts
have stopped giving automatic raises for seniority and base 60%
of all pay increases on performance. In Denver, unions and
school districts designed an incentive program where teachers
receive bonuses for student achievement and for earning
national teaching certificates. However, some plans have not
worked. For example, Cincinnati teachers voted against a merit
pay proposal and Philadelphia teachers gave their bonus checks
to charity rather than cashing them. It appears that having
teachers involved in planning the incentive system is one key
factor to success. The same can be said for all incentive plans -
if employees don't buy into them, they will not work.
Your paper may be based on a business entity of your choosing
from the public or private sector and must answer the following
Research Questions:
1. How could an organization measure the effectiveness of its
pay-for-performance plan(s)?
2. From an employee's perspective, what are the advantages and
disadvantages of using a pay-for-performance plan?
3. From an employer's perspective, what are the advantages and
disadvantages of using a pay-for-performance plan?
Research Paper Instructions:
IMPORTANT!!
Please support your ideas, arguments, and opinions with
independent research, and include at least three (4) supporting
references or sources (NOT Wikipedia, unknown, or anonymous
sources). References must include the name of the author and
the date of publication. Websites are not acceptable. Format
your work in proper APA format, include a cover page, an
abstract, an introduction, and a labeled conclusion in
accordance with the course rubric, a minimum of 4 FULL pages
of written content, and a references section. Double-space all
work and cite all listed references properly in text in accordance
